Why did God choose Naaman for healing?

Answered in 1 source

God chose Naaman to demonstrate His sovereign grace and mercy toward all people, not just Israel.

God's choice of Naaman, a Gentile and enemy of Israel, underscores the vast reach of His sovereign grace. In Luke 4:27, Jesus mentions Naaman as the only leper healed in Elisha's time, highlighting that God's grace surpasses national boundaries and human expectations. This narrative teaches that God's mercy is extended to whomever He wills, as He purposes to reveal His glory through His acts of grace. Naaman's healing serves as a reminder that no one is outside the reach of God's love and healing power, demonstrating His sovereignty over salvation.
